We come before the throne of grace with your heartfelt requests, lifting them up in the mighty name of Jesus Christ, the only name by which we can approach the Father and find true salvation. It is through Him alone that we have access to God’s protection, joy, peace, love, guidance, and wisdom. As it is written in Acts 4:12, "There is salvation in none other, for neither is there any other name under heaven, that is given among men, by which we must be saved."
Heavenly Father, we stand in agreement with this dear one, asking that You would indeed surround them with Your divine protection today and tomorrow. Guard their heart, mind, and steps from the schemes of the enemy and from any evil that seeks to harm them. "For He will give His angels charge over you, to guard you in all your ways. They will bear you up in their hands, so that you won’t dash your foot against a stone" (Psalm 91:11-12). We also ask that You would protect them from the consequences of their own wrong decisions, Lord. Your Word tells us in Proverbs 3:5-6, "Trust in Yahweh with all your heart, and don’t lean on your own understanding. In all your ways acknowledge Him, and He will make your paths straight." We pray that You would redirect their steps when they stray and grant them the humility to seek Your will above their own.
Lord, we cry out for Your guidance and wisdom to fill their life abundantly. "If any of you lacks wisdom, let him ask of God, who gives to all liberally and without reproach, and it will be given to him" (James 1:5). May they walk in the light of Your truth, making decisions that honor You and align with Your perfect plan for their life. We ask that You would fulfill their days with purpose, joy, and peace—not as the world gives, but as only You can provide. "You will show me the path of life. In Your presence is fullness of joy. In Your right hand there are pleasures forevermore" (Psalm 16:11). Fill them with Your love, Lord, the kind of love that casts out fear, that is patient, kind, and never fails (1 Corinthians 13:4-8). Let them rest in the contentment that comes from knowing You are their Provider, their Strength, and their Everlasting Father.
We rebuke any spirit of fear, anxiety, or confusion that may try to take root in their heart. The enemy comes to steal, kill, and destroy, but Jesus came that they may have life, and have it abundantly (John 10:10). We declare that no weapon formed against them shall prosper, and every tongue that rises against them in judgment, they shall condemn (Isaiah 54:17). We pray that they would walk in the fullness of Your Spirit, bearing the fruit of love, joy, peace, patience, kindness, goodness, faithfulness, gentleness, and self-control (Galatians 5:22-23).
Above all, we pray that this dear one would draw ever closer to You, Lord. May they seek Your face daily, delighting in Your Word and meditating on it day and night (Psalm 1:2). Let them know the depth of Your love for them, a love so great that You sent Your only Son to die for their sins so that they might have eternal life (John 3:16). If they have not yet surrendered their life to Jesus Christ, we pray that today would be the day of their salvation. May they confess with their mouth that Jesus is Lord and believe in their heart that God raised Him from the dead, and they will be saved (Romans 10:9).
We thank You, Father, for hearing our prayer. We trust in Your faithfulness and Your promise that whatever we ask in Jesus’ name, You will do, so that the Father may be glorified in the Son (John 14:13-14). May this dear one walk in the assurance of Your presence today and every day, knowing that You are their Refuge, their Strength, and their Ever-Present Help in times of trouble (Psalm 46:1). In the precious and powerful name of Jesus Christ, we pray. Amen.
